Bennigan's Broccoli Bites
3 eggs
6 ounces shredded Monterey Jack cheese
6 ounces shredded Colby cheese
1 (16 oz.) box frozen chopped broccoli, thawed, drained well
2 1/2 ounces bacon bits
1/2 ounce diced yellow onion
1 ounce all-purpose flour
Italian bread crumbs, as needed
Oil, for frying
Drain thawed broccoli thoroughly. Beat eggs in a mixing bowl with a
whisk. Place all the ingredients into a plastic container, except for
the bread crumbs.Stir together until thoroughly combined.
Refrigerate mixture for about 1 hour. This will help bind the mix.
Heat about 4 cups oil in a fryer or deep pan for frying at 350º F.
Set up a shallow dish with bread crumbs. Scoop about 1/2 ounce
portion of the broccoli mixture into the bread crumbs. Form each
portion into a ball and coat it well with the crumbs. Place broccoli
bites into the oil. Make sure they do not stick together. Fry for
about one minute, then remove and place onto a dish lined with paper
towels to absorb the oil.
